“Talk to the Feds, it was their judge who overturned Prop 187. It’s been downhill ever since.”
The flood gates opened up to the illegals. Besides costing us millions of tax $’s each day, their damage to California’s environment each and every day was/is even more expensive.
Two years before the Prop 187 election I worked with a local enivro to preserve native fish and not cost a ton of money.
He was an old time democrat, and we joked about each other’s presidents and governors. We raised money for our projects, some of which are still going on.
Things changed in the last year before the Prop 187 election. He refused to admit that opening admission of millions of illegals would harm our environment from the day they entered and would continue.
A couple of months before the election, he admitted that I was probably correct, but he had to support his party.
After the election, I told him, that I couldn’t work with him anymore. Whatever friendship was gone. His efforts then went into the delay and final repel of Prop 187.
He challenged me as a bigot a couple of years later. I had him drive to large encampments of illegals along the Russian River. Pollution and garbage were everywhere in these not legal encampments. The pollution and garbage ended up in the Russian River and the streams flowing into the Russian River and worked their way down stream.
When this damage was pointed out to him, he blamed the situation on Republicans for not welcoming the illegals.
He died a couple of years later, and never admitted that he was terribly wrong.
“He died a couple of years later..”
I hope it was excruciatingly painful.
